The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) Chairmanship Candidate for Egbeda Local Government and Vice Chairman of Egbeda Local Government, Political Head/Administrator of Ajorosun LCDA, Hon. Ibrahim Oladebo Simple, has joined family members, political associates, women, youths and well-wishers across Oyo State in celebrating the Director of Women Mobilisation for the Oyo APM Gubernatorial Campaign and Senior Special Assistant to Governor Seyi Makinde on Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters, Hon. Ramota Agberemi Dabo (RAD), on her birthday.
Oladebo Simple, in a goodwill message marking the occasion, described RAD as a woman of remarkable courage, uncommon resilience and exceptional political intelligence, saying her journey in public service and politics reflects the strength, determination and capacity of women to excel in leadership.
He said RAD has distinguished herself through her ability to connect with people at the grassroots, understand political realities and remain committed to the causes she believes in, stressing that her influence goes beyond party politics.
According to him, RAD is one of the women whose presence in the political arena continues to demonstrate that effective leadership is built on courage, experience, sacrifice and genuine connection with the people.
“Hon. Ramota Agberemi Dabo is a woman of great substance and character.
She is courageous, resilient, intelligent and deeply committed to whatever responsibility she undertakes.
“What makes her particularly remarkable is her ability to combine political experience with a strong understanding of the people.
She knows how to relate with the grassroots, she understands the political terrain, and she has consistently shown that she is not afraid to take responsibility.
“Her journey is an encouragement to women who aspire to participate actively in politics and leadership.
RAD has shown that a woman can be firm, strategic, compassionate and effective at the same time,” Oladebo Simple said.
The APM chairmanship candidate further described RAD as a woman of culture and substance, noting that her passion for the promotion of Yoruba values, traditions and cultural heritage has added another dimension to her public profile.
He said her contribution to politics should not be measured only by the positions she occupies but also by the relationships she has built, people she has encouraged and the positive influence she continues to exert on those around her.
Oladebo Simple particularly commended her commitment to women mobilisation within the APM, describing her as a formidable political organiser whose understanding of women’s participation and grassroots mobilisation remains a major asset to the party.
He noted that in an era when women are increasingly taking their rightful place in political leadership, personalities such as RAD deserve to be celebrated and encouraged because of the example they continue to set.
“Today is not just about adding another year to your age; it is about celebrating a life of impact, courage and service.
“You have demonstrated repeatedly that leadership is about the ability to inspire confidence, bring people together and remain steadfast even when the political environment becomes challenging.
“Your courage inspires women. Your resilience inspires the younger generation. Your commitment to culture inspires our people, while your political experience continues to be valuable to those who work with you.
“You are indeed a woman worthy of celebration,” he added.
The Egbeda APM chairmanship candidate also praised RAD for her warmth, accessibility and ability to maintain meaningful relationships across different segments of society, describing those qualities as important attributes of an effective political leader.
He expressed confidence that she would continue to make significant contributions to the development of Oyo State and the advancement of women’s participation in governance and politics.
While wishing her a memorable birthday celebration, Oladebo Simple prayed Almighty God to grant RAD continued good health, wisdom, peace, prosperity and renewed strength to accomplish greater things in the years ahead.
“On behalf of my family, associates and the good people of Egbeda Local Government, I warmly celebrate an exceptional woman, a courageous political leader, a cultural ambassador and a dependable sister in the struggle for better representation and purposeful leadership.
“May Almighty God continue to preserve you, enlarge your coast, grant you greater wisdom and bless you with many more years of sound health, happiness, fulfilment and outstanding accomplishments.
“May this new chapter of your life open the doors to greater opportunities, greater influence and greater achievements.
“Happy birthday, Hon. Ramota Agberemi Dabo. May your light continue to shine, and may your impact continue to speak for generations to come,” Oladebo Simple said.
